Service, and Christmas Eve Service. We enjoyed teaching Sunday School. It was a tradition at our house on a junior Choir Saturday night practice to have Grampie and Grammie Betton to supper.

REFLECTIONS: Cathy (Clark) Stordy

There was so much excitement when the basement of the church was redone so that we could have Sunday School in a new room.And there was the Lot 16 junior Choir and the Saturday evening practices; the patience and the exasperation of our director, Mr. Bob Betton and the dedication of our organist Mrs. Edith MacLean.
